What is this rash? (UPDATE)

It doesn't itch and it just appeared on my wrists and hands. In some of the areas it actually looks like a perfect chain. This pic is horrible, but it's all I got. I am concerned since I just had surgery a week ago.

TIA!!!!



UPDATE:

It's back this morning. By last night it disappeared, but now it's back.

Re: What is this rash? (PIC)

Looks liek some kind of allergic rection (from what I can see) I would call the dr and tell them . Hope you feel better and recover from your seurgery very soon

Re: What is this rash? (PIC)

Ohhh Kelly I have to agree with the OP !! Keep us updated and I hope you feel better

Re: What is this rash? (PIC)

Well, the surgeon said it wasn't related to the surgery. He said to make an appt with my regular dr. Now the rash is gone. I guess it was some sort of allergic reaction if it came and went so quick. I got freaked when it was circular.

Thanks!!!

ETA: Now 12 hours later it is back.

It looks like a rash my son had when he had an allergic reaction to anibiotics.

Re: What is this rash? (UPDATE)

It looks like allergies... I had something that looked exactly like that. i wasnt sure how I got it.. b ut I took benadryl and just put calomine lotion on it. Where you outside at all? I got it the day after I went apple picking..

Re: What is this rash? (UPDATE)

You know, I was just thinking , maybe you should put some hydrocotisone cream/ointment(you can buy at the drug store) on it and see what happens. But I would call the dr first to make sure that it's ok to use the cream.
